99-03 is a completely different body kit than the 96-98. They do not interchange, they do not 'bolt on' to anything other than the specific year they were designed for.

I did not see any kit out either site that allows a 96-98 mustang to look like a 99+ model, and the link that droppedbass87 is DEFINITLY for a 99+ which will not work as was mentioned in several previous posts... The same site does have the 96-98 Saleen Kit, and there WAS a Saleen kit made for the 96-98 body that will look like the saleen 99-03 style in terms of the front facia, skirts, and rear bumper. (but NOT headlight/marker lights, grill, or hood)
If you want to have a "similar appearance" to a 99+, simply put on the saleen kit (MADE FOR a 96-98 that gives you the 99+ looks), and get a set of the '1 piece' head/marker lights that are out there. It will not give you a 100% matching look, but it comes fairly close.

Just make VERY sure you order the right body kit, because if you order the 99+ kit, your going to be really pissed when nothing bolts up....

And, IMHO, I agree with others on steering clear of fiberglass kits... Nothing worse than smacking the front facia on a speedbump and watching it fall off in pieces, or crack.... I learned my lesson my neon this way....

dude, I have a saleen replica kit for my 2k pony and a max drop of 2" on the front and rear suspension. You will hit parking blocks and curbs.

The point is Down force and performance and that includes a body kit that sits low and to lower your ride. JUST STAY AWAY FROM PARKING LOTS WITH SPEED BUMPS, PARK AWAY FROM CURBS, AND PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

I split my front fascia on a curb cuz i was taking on my cell. That cost me $200 to fix. All I am saying is buy an old honda for you day to day and keep your pony for fun. Build her right and have fun. Just watch the cops; they all sux ass and will tag you for anything they can pull out of their asses.
